The maps below show new COVID-19 clusters reported in the past 7 days.
NotesA COVID-19 outbreak in TK-12 schools or programs serving school-aged children is opened when there are at least 3 or more laboratory-confirmed cases of COVID-19 within a 14-day period of each other in a specific group with members who are epidemiologically-linked, do not share a household, and are not a close contact of each other outside of the school. Total number of student and staff cases may include non-confirmed cases (e.g. cases that tested positive via over-the-counter or at-home tests). Out of over 3,000 schools in LA County, only a small fraction have COVID-19 outbreaks. Those that do are assisted by Public Health to mitigate spread.
